How to Change the Username on Slideshare

Slideshare offers a way to upload and share presentations and videos with the click of a button. With so many users on Slideshare, the website provides features for a public profile and gallery. However, when you sign up, pick a name you like, because Slideshare never allows you to change your username. Beside making a new account, the only part of your name you can change is your display name. Slideshare suggests changing your display name if you want to change your username, since that is what other users see on your profile.
